I would disagree with the 2DS being higher than the new 2DS XL and new 3DS XL, yes its more comfortable but its also the least portable and is missing so many features compared to them
But it’s cheaper and the screen looks better due to higher ppi. I have a 3ds xl and a 2ds but the 2ds has a better screen imo. The size of the 3ds xl just makes the screen look worse
@@JimmyJr630 I don't think price point was being taken into account for this list but when that comes into account the 2DS is definitely the best value for money. the screens do look better but the standard new 3DS also has that benefit
I got a Modded NEW Galaxy 3DS XL for Christmas; I love how it looks & how it feels in my paws. Never had a 3DS before only grew up with the DSi & Gameboy Colour before that so this was quite the upgrade. I also enjoy the 3D effect when it doesn't dip the frames, lookin' at you Pokemon Ultra Moon! Only issue I have is would've enjoyed duel Circle Pads for certain games but that's just a issue with all of the NEW models.
3:06 The reason that the old 3DS XL has worse build quality than the original is due to it coming out after the price cuts, the original 3DS was meant to be $250 so when it got cut to $170 they wanted to keep the XL at a similar price so they cut costs in other places
Your comment about the original 3DS D-Pad feeling weird made me try pressing the buttons on all my systems and wow you’re right. You have to press the very ends of the pad to get it down and the button is like a millimeter above the trigger. Never going to un-feel that now lol
Back in 2022, I ordered a mega beautiful red Monster Hunter Generations New 3DS XL, brand new, unopened, on Ebay for 500$ + shipping, and it never arrived. Big, BIG oof.
Advantage of 2DS XL over new 3DS XL is the weight. It's much lighter so it's easier to hold for longer gaming sessions, especially when you attach a grip case. Also the 2DS XL mass produced grip cases from aliexpress are much better ergonomically (though I just ordered some 3d printed ones for the new 3ds xl so will have to see). But otherwise, yeah the the IPS screens (if you luck out), speaker placements, and build quality just blow the 2ds xl out of the water otherwise.
While I love my 2DS, I wonder how much the comfort aspect of the 2DS actually matters because you can buy grips for the other 3ds systems & they are all more portable than the 2DS
I like the 2ds xl but the thing I don’t like the built quality is cheap not only that I don’t like how they put the speakers in the bottom when I play it my hands be covering it
1. New 3ds xl - Easy to hold and big screen, good 3d effect, access to new 3ds games and runs some games better but it’s too expensive 2. 2DS - Insanely cheap, Comfortable and high ppi but has poor speakers and plasticky, no 3D 3. New 3DS - high ppi and new chip, very portable but not comfortable to hold and too expensive, better chip 4. New 2DS xl - Better chip and large screen, but is flimsy, bad speaker placement and low ppi, no 3D 4. 3DS xl - Low PPi, bad 3D, big screen, better battery, comfortable to hold and chesper than 2ds xl 5. 3DS - Small, bad 3D, elmore expensive than 2ds, high ppi but
@ It’s the pixels per inch of the screen. All the 3DS screens have the same resolution but due to some screens being bigger, they look more pixelated wheras the smaller screens look sharper and better

So fair. I know I'm in the minority with the 2DS ranking

@@juicetimerWhile on the topic of it, the battery for the base 2ds and 3ds is still being officially made vs the xl having the battery discontinued

You're the first person I've heard who prefers the non foldable 2DS model to the foldable 2DS model. 😶
Wow what an underrated channel. Great video 👍
You should rank every nintendo game case label
Great idea. Will add this to the list 😎
Obviously its all opinions but hiw dare you put the slab above faceplates galore xD

What is a ppi?

the 2DS is the worse because it only has one speaker
Yeah i love the 3ds
